Will Stevens of Detroit and Ionia,

region of the belt, and then make himself scarce. But he was soon in the
hands of the law and was arraigned before Justice Bockafellow yesterday,
and is bound over for the September
session of the circuit court. Stevens
is an able-bodied young man who has
no excuse for his petty crimes except
pure cussedness, born of indolence.
The only question for the court to decide is whether he should be sent to
the hoaSQ of correction (?) to the
limit   of   the  law,   or to    an    in
sane  asylum, for if such  repeated
thefts do   not betoken

Mt. Pleasant for assault and battery,
but Mt. Pleasant atmosphere did hot
agree with him, so last week Thursday he slipped away from the penal
authorities while pretending to water
the lawn, and made himself scarce.
In due time he showed up in Yernon city. Last evening an officer at-
tempedte recapture him and then
the fun began, for the officer had to
deal with the whole family. The entire community turned out to lend its
advice and moral support to the officer. It took about two hours to get
Cassidy into a carriage for returning
him to Mt. Pleasant, daring which,
time vile language and profanitymade
the air fairly sulphurous.

The following complimentary notices we clip from Beed City and Cadillac papers. Bev. Mr. Cram was for
some time pastor of the Clare Baptist
charch, and his many Meads here will
be pleased to learn of his saccess.
Erom the Cadillac Democrat: "Bev.
Geo. W. Cram, well and favorably
known in this city, is in the Beed City
graduating class, this year. It is only
fair to say that the reverend gentleman gradaated from the Traverse City
high school several years ago and has
now completed a post gradaate coarse
in Latin, Greek and German. He has
been aboatthe busiist preacher in the
district all the time besides." Erom
the Beed City Clarion: "Bev. G. W.
Cram preached his farewell sermon at
the Baptist church Sunday evening.
During his two years labor here the
church has greatly improved in all departments, and never was in such excellent condition. Mr. Cram has been
a very hard worker, doing a large
amount of work in the small towns
adjoining, besides attending school
and graduating the past year. He
may well be termed a self-made m
and has a very bright future before
him. The Baptist state board of missions has appointed him to do special
evangelistic work, and he will commence his new work at Kalkaska next
week. His many friends wish him
abundant success."

The Earwell ball nine refases to
meet Harrison again on the diamond.
The Cleaver regrets this feeling between the clabs, but our boys have
plenty of games booked for the season.
Our park took the eye of everybody
on the 4th, and many were the envious
glances cast thereon by visitors from
neighboring towns. Well may they
be envious, for we venture the assertion that not another inland town in
Michigan has the natural advantage
for a park Harrison has.
The sad-eyed sporting editor of the
Earwell Begister is yet sendiag forth
dismal wails over the fact that a special committee of wet narses were not
on hand to attend hjm when the Ear-
well boys played ball here some weeks
since. It was certainly an act of negligence on the part of our people not
to have provided the proper care for
the infant. In the last issue of the
Begister he rises in all his eloquence
and announces that "we5* would pre^
fer banishment to Canada rather than
to Harrison. In this the sporting editor speaks of himself in a newspaper
capacity.. The Cleaver is glad of the
opportunity to inform the boy that his
views on the subject agree perfectly
with those here who are unfortunate
enough to have his acquaintance.
An association of the early settlers
of any county is one of the institutions
of which the people take pleasure in
maintaining for two reasons, first, is
the social feature; secondly, for the
compilation of a set of records upon
the early history of the townships and
villages, which in after years will be
of untold value. On July 4, in this
city there was laid the foundation for
such a society in Clare county^ and its
inception upon Independence day gives
to it that solidity and vigor that its
future prosperity and usefalaess is as-1
sured. Twenty-four pioneers slgnsS
the agreement binding themselves; together in the society. W. H. Browa%
of this city, was chosen president?
"s, of Glare, secretary; and W-
arper, of Harrison, assistant ss©
i- committee of "three will
draft a constitution and by-laws m
present them at a meeting to be hell
at the court house in this city on Mm-
day, Septembers, at which time it is
hoped-there will he :a: large attendance.
